Media and Sport, when she plans to introduce a football governance bill.
The Football Governance Bill was introduced in the House of Lords on 24 October 2024. I look forward to working across the House in due course to progress the Bill through Parliament and ensure we deliver on much needed regulation for the game.
Media and Sport, what steps she (a) is taking and (b) plans to take to support the development of the broadcasting industry outside of London.
Our world-leading TV sector is too centralised in London and the South East. We need to spread the benefits of the sector into our towns and cities, so that more people can see themselves and their experiences reflected on screen as part of our national story. This is why my Right Honourable Friend the Secretary of State and I have already called on broadcasters to be more ambitious in growing the sector outside of London and the South East, and to commission more content from across the whole of the UK.My Department is taking forward work in this area to understand the barriers to further development of the industry outside of London and we are committed to working with the sector to ensure the right framework, conditions and support are in place for this to happen.
What steps he has taken to assess the impact on the health outcomes of people with dementia of the (a) average length of time people with dementia stay in hospital relative to people over 65 without dementia and (b) availability of specialist dementia nurses to meet the needs of people with dementia during hospital stays.
NHS England does not hold this information centrally. However, the provision of dementia health care services is the responsibility of local integrated care boards (ICBs). NHS England would expect ICBs to commission services based on local population needs, taking account of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence’s guidelines.Employers determine the number of specialist nurses needed to provide care for the population. However, there is no specific regulatory requirement for post registration education, and people can choose to upskill to meet their own educational requirements.Student nurses do receive broad preparation, so they are able to support adults needing care, including those with dementia. The Advanced Clinical Practice programme supports the progression of clinicians, enabling them to take on more specialist roles.
